Annie Lennox
The First Noel
[Verse 1]
The first Noel the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds
In fields as they lay
In fields where they lay
Keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night
That was so deep

[Chorus]
Noel, Noel
Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

[Verse 2]
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night

[Chorus]
Noel, Noel
Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

[Verse 3]
And by the light of that same star
Three wise men came from country far
To seek for a King was their intent
And to follow the star
Wherever it went
[Chorus]
Noel, Noel
Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

[Verse 4]
Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made heaven
And earth of naught
And with His blood
Mankind hath bought

[Chorus]
Noel, Noel
Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel
Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel
Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel
Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
